If caught in a transgression,
Remember your confession;
If you take time to confess,
The Lord is willing to bless.
Just normal human error,
To be a trouble bearer;
But it is not at a loss,
When you look up to the cross.
So if you are spiritual,
God will do the ritual;
Sending His Holy Spirit,
Cleanse so you can inherit.
For others who go astray,
Do it in a gentle way;
Watch out that the temptation,
Causing a hesitation.
Keep your mind on Jesus Christ,
So you are never enticed;
As to what others have done,
So think only of the Son.
We all go through some hard times,
And we must pay for those crimes;
The agony will prolong,
For the times we have done wrong.
But God forgives and forgets,
Since Christ has paid our debts;
Sacrificed for our sin,
That has corrupted within.
Examine your own actions,
If there were some infractions;
Ask the Lord to please forgive,
So in peace once again live.
